# just thinking about the phrase 'light my fire'
how can you light a fire?

Shouldn't the song be, "Come on baby, light my twigs?"

That would be more more accurate. Hence better.

EDIT: Infact, the whole lyrics could be

Come on baby light my twigs
I want to smoke some cigs
I want to cook some pigs
Come on baby light my twigs!
